Jacob remains cool if you don't romance, I guess. But I can't really like him anymore after that stunt he can potentially pull if you do romance him. And I don't even take the romances seriously.

Though I will accept compensation in the form of Garrus leaving Shepard for another turian.

You can see a YouTube video of Tali dying, and I don't think those inspire mass rage.

If you saw them (and by them, I mean the mean crazy ones I'm eager to ****** off who constitute about 5% of the total Talimancer population or less) and how they reacted wtih extreme rage at the thought of Tali romancing FemShep (who is the SAME PERSON as BroShep), you'd get why it's gonna be good.


I remember that bullcrap.

"Tali isn't gay!"
"... She's an alien. I think it works a little differently with alie-"
"SO NOT GAY! SHE CAN'T BE GAY!"
"But it showed in the unused scri-"
"YOU CAN'T CHANGE WHO SHE IS! NOT GAY!"

nauseating.

Eh. EDI in human form just stinks of sci-fi movie ripoff. Lousy work as per normal, Bioware.

]If you think the story is so stupid and such, why the hell are you even on here whining about it acting like you are sooooooo smart?  Just leave these forums and don't buy the game.


I'll leave when I get perma-banned. Meanwhile I'd rather inflict myself upon you.

I also invested a lot in this series so I'd like to say my peace.

You remind me of one of those people on the socom or BF3 forums who do nothing but whine about the game yet they go out to buy it just to spread negative thoughts on the world.  And investing a lot in a series is no excuse for paying 60 dollars on a game you know you won't like.  I bought every socom game up until socom 4 once it became a steaming pile of dog crap.  Once it had become said steaming pile, I just simply walked away from the series, even though I had invested in the 5 games before it.

Retroactive continuity (retcon for short) is the alteration of previously established facts in a fictional work.


That is not the only definition.


That's what retroactive continuity stands for. If it implied something else, it'd have been called something else.

Don't tell me that I have to break the words down for you.

I haven't been around long enough to see how crazy talimancers are, but I do know how crazy some Garrus Fangirls can be.

I love Garrus. Hell, I romanced the dude. But some of these ladies are downright frighteningly obsessed. I remember someone mentioning a while back 'Ahaha. Tali x Garrus. Cute' - and they threw bricks through windows.

And it takes a little bit of crazy to draw/commission some of that Garrus x FShep fanart. man.

See, I just pretend they don't exist.  There aren't as many of them here as there are on, say, deviantart.

As for the fanart, I haven't seen the especially nasty stuff, but I may or may not have made a tamer piece my desktop background at some point or another.

But really, ladies (and gents), let's not get possessive over our fictional space waifus/husbandos.

Homophobic rednecks. Also, @SpahChicken, you obviously haven't seen the YT comments on Tali's 'boom headshot' video. Teh rage levels are 9002 over there.

If I buy it then you can hold it against me. However that's not looking too likely right now.

The filling in of previously blank information to justify current events in a story is not retconning, nor will it ever have been retconning now will it ever BE called retconning. Thinking otherwise is ignorant.


ORLY?


Too bad that there's no interpretation to change, since there are no facts.

Try again.

This forum is so angry. People need to sit back, relax, and realize that at the end of that it is all fiction.

The design of EDI's body was inspired by Maria from Metropolis.

Says so right on the page.

retcon definition
/ret'kon/ retroactive continuity.
The
common situation in fiction where a new story "reveals" things about
events in previous stories, usually leaving the "facts" the same (thus
preserving continuity) while completely changing their interpretation.
For example, revealing that a whole season of "Dallas" was a dream was a
retcon.


There you have it, SWM.

That's weird, I haven't seen any comments like that.

Regardless, it appears that she is in fact straight, so it's all moot at this point.

The facts stay the same but the interpretation is changed. Such as Tali having a crush on Shepard. Or the FCW being about Reaper tech.

We take what was established and change it. That's a retcon.
